I’m the chief engineer of Tamar Labs - a scale-up consultancy based in Tel-Aviv, and the author of NullTerminator.org, a blog about our conceptions, coding habits and how they influence the systems we build. I have started working in the field of High Performance Computing in 2006 as a researcher in HUJI's MOSIX lab and was later enlisted to a major state owned research center where I helped build and operate one of Israel's biggest supercomputer clusters.
